23andme - Find your DNA make up


Epic

Recommended Posts

With the recent threads on the various DNA markers, it might be interesting to bring up 23andme.com.  It's a service where you give your DNA via saliva and they analyze your DNA for various haplogroups, and show what percentage of your lineage via geographical places as a percentage. 

As more and more South Asians get into the databank, the more the results will get better or accurate.  There was a recent beta update which has been able to better pin point geographical places as previously it was very broad i.e South Asian and now it can point to states and regions.  This was a kinda of a big update as previously you needed to feed your data into GEDmatch/HarappaWorld to get south asian specifics. 

 

Check out some results

In Tamil Nadu, some of the castes marry within themselves to keep the 'bloodline pure'.  Here's what the result of one such caste looks like

Some other results:

Bengali Brahmin
79.4% North Indian and Pakistani 9.1% Bangladeshi and NE Indian 2.4% Kannadiga, Tamil, Telugu & Sri Lankan 6.2% Broadly Central asian and Northern Indian 0.4% Broadly South Indian and Sri Lankan 2.1% Broadly Central Asian and South Asian.
0.4% Scandinavian

 

Kashmiri Pandit Female 
97.6 Northern Indian/Pakistani, 1.7 Central Asian and Northern South Asian, 0.5 Western Asian, 0.2 Sardinian. 

 

Mixed (TN/UP)

49.6% Central/South Indian and 48.5% North Indian, which makes complete sense given that  mother is from Tamil Nadu and  father is Uttar Pradesh.

How matng of them are aryans coming from Iran ke europe? 

Haha, not sure if that's a sarcastic remark but that's not the goal of this thread.  

 

At the end of the day, we are very much closely related as expected.  Even those that practice endogamy to 'preserve' their bloodlines, have DNA markings all over India.  A staunch Bengali today can have majority 'North Indian DNA and very little modern day Bangladeshi / North Eastern DNA grouping.  Gujjars settled in Punjab/Kashmir have markings from Gujarat,Rajasthan, Punjab, Kashmir..this can be due to migration patterns as Gujjars traditionally were travelers/nomads. Even just looking at last names, i.e Chahars you find in Rajasthan, and as you move further up towards Haryana/Punjab, there are Chahals/Chahils.  Change from 'r' to 'l' is very common. Many Afghans have reported to have about 30/40% Pak/Ind and half Central Asian.  

 

There was a white supremacist who actually had about 14% sub saharan african makeup.

This reminds me of a game we used to make freshers play back in college days. We had students from various parts of India. So they had to guess where each individual senior is from. Interestingly most of them could hardly guess it right.

WARNING - ATTENTION

Don't give your DNA for testing. Its all fake. This is just to get your DNA for their selfish purposes. Your DNA may get used to make your robot replacement or other sinister purposes. Everyone knows which part they are from. Don't get into this racial nonsense. Here this comedian Bill Burr is talking more sense than these DNA researchers. Those in power release it as comedy but its much more truer than actual news. Don't believe them and don't fall into vanity
